Space Exploration

Measurable progress in space exploration technologies

Ever since humankind first attempted to reach the stars, the field of space exploration has been at the cutting edge of technological progress. The space race of the twentieth century may be over, but the industry continues both in the name of scientific progress and commercial enterprise. Today’s space industry focuses on launch vehicle production, satellite manufacturing and ground support system engineering.

To continue manned missions to space, as well as the schedule of probe and satellite launches, manufacturers must develop new space vehicles and ground equipment. With our increasing reliance on the communications, GPS navigation, security surveillance, weather monitoring and entertainment broadcasts provided by satellites, there is a surprising amount of growth in this seemingly niche sector.
